Show v. huge mechanical mole is celebratir ts first anniversary about 3 miles deep A the mountain range east of Strawberry Reservoir. Drilling of the 4.1 -- mile-long Water Hollow Tunnel began in November 1968. The 80-tmonster is leaving a hole through the mountain 13 feet in n on iiameter. Palmer B. DeLong, Bureau of Reclamations Project Manager of the Central Utah Projects Office at Provo, reported that the mole had made good progress although some drilling problems had been encountered. Recently the mole entered a ot wide fault zone filled with loose, shattered rpck from which considerable amounts of .water flowed. Material falling from the top and sides of the tunnel temporarily "halted the moles progress. Steel braced rail spiling was driven to shore up the tunnel through the fault zone, while fallout material was removed from around the mole. Because the soft tunnel sides of tthe faul( would not support the mole grippers at full pressure, the mole inched slowly through the fault zone, with hand labor accounting for most of the progress','.1' Drilling- is now proceeding normally through sandstone and conglomerate which . 220-fo- - provides adequate support for the hydraulic grippers. The grippers braced on the sides of the tunnel hold the machine stationary while a hydraulic ram forces the cutting head against the rock. After cutting about 5 feet, the mole is moved ahead on runners to obtain a new grip on the sides of the tunnel. The mole is now progressing at a rate of about 300 feet per week. Drilling of the tunnel is well ahead of schedule in spite of the problems experienced. Completion of the tunnel, including a concrete lining, was scheduled for January 1971. Boyles Bros. Drilling Company and Gibbons & Reed Construction Company are constructing the tunnel under contract with the Bureau of Reclamation at a cost of $5,594,823, and intend to complete the project several months ahead of schedule. Water Hollow Tunnel, when completed will have a diameter of 10.5 feet and will carry water from Water Hollow Creek to Strawberry Reservoir. The tunnel is the first section of the Strawberry Aqueduct, a major feature of the Bonneville Unit of the Central Utah Project. The Project is being sponsored by the Central Utah Water Conservancy This giant earth boring machine (mole) is drilling a through the mountain east of Strawberry Reservoir. 13-fo- ot 9 THE PAYSON CHRONICLE 3iant mole celebrates first anniversary Thursday,Dcambr IS, 1969 obituaries A Civilian School Sms . i Details Explained Funeral services for John Franklin Taylor were held Wednesday, December 10, 1969 in the Salem Ward Chapel with Bishop Roy Miller officiating.
